Re: Should England have it's own National Anthem, if so what should it be ?

What about the Horst Wessel song? Now that's a catchy tune that can be belted out.

Nice comment immediately under that vid from a non-Brit which I think deserves to be shared as an antidote to those who blame and denigrate Britain for all the world's ills:

Quote:

Is amazing how such a tiny island has given birth to so many things. Somehow Britain managed to get ahead and shake the wold with the industrial revolution; it dared to face empires whose wealth, size and armies seemed to put the British to shame, yet they prevailed. British culture has evolved to become global, English language unites the world (even allowing me to express this to you). Such have their accomplishments been, that the history of most modern nations would be completely incomprehensible without taking British influence into consideration. Their adventures of exploring the world have only parallel with their adventures into the realms of the mind. Certainly I can imagine human beings in the far future learning from ancient history and marveling about a tiny island that created a new world.﻿

Just another drive for the break up of the UK.

I'd sooner they got rid of the Welsh and Scottish anthems tbh. I'd rather they merged all teams into GB teams.

As for the issue of 'God Save the Queen' - it is a concern. However, in regards to the song I suppose one could simply view it differently. Support the concept of the monarchy rather than the monarch in question. View it as simply a pro-monarchist anthem rather than a specific endorsement of the traitor-in-chief. Much like how the American anthem refers to an idealised version of America, rather than the corrupt, decayed version it presently is.
